Epic isn’t a AAA studio?

I agree! Out of all those, the only questionable Pixar/Disney wins are Brave and Big Hero 6, IMO. I’m torn between Zootopia vs Kubo, since I love both and would’ve been happy if either won.

Fornite being free does not matter as much as you think. Sony spends money getting timed exclusivity for Destiny content just so people will buy the game on their system.

I have to agree with Stephen on the environments being uninteresting and unwelcoming. I don’t want to go back to that world.

“Some random Disney film” really encapsulates the incredible quality of Pixar and Disney projects. Movies which, in direct opposition to their live action counter parts, spend years in preproduction, honing the characters and tone, before anyone touches a computer. Not to mention how Zootopia is the best way to teach…

This series intimidated the heck out of me, but after a couple of hours I can say I’m in love with this game.

“$300M budget” is deceptive, though. That’s for the whole movie. If they made a poor compositing artist work on that for a week or two, you’re looking at a couple thousand versus years and millions of dollars in deep learning technology development.

None are, though. Not as iconic as Mario (is anything?), but they’re all custom and easily identifiable.

All the ones I mentioned have custom sfx that are pretty memorable and iconic for anyone that has played those games. I bet most fans could ace a blind test of these sounds. (:

Halo: Shield depletion and recharge sound. Ghosts. Needler. Warthog. Sticky grenades. Energy sword.

I’m curios about this. Never heard anyone that didn’t like IMAX. Is it the size of the screen that bothers you? Assuming the film was shot on IMAX, how can a lower quality image be preferable?

“We have a feeling the Xbox One S will continue to drop in price now that it’s been succeeded by the Xbox One X.”

But they didn’t. MS doesn’t care if you play on Xbox or PC, they still get licensing fees to have games play on their platforms. They usually lose or break even on the consoles themselves.

I live about 20 minutes from Barceloneta. My parents lost power for a couple of days when Irma hit, but phone signal wasn’t affected anywhere on the island. I bet he’s talking about Maria.

I don’t see the resemblance, although they both borrow heavily from Pixar.

Probably so you can get new weapons and upgrades, switch weapons between characters, etc. It does look slightly out of place at first though. Funny thing is, Mario had a gun in Miyamoto’s first prototypes for Super Mario Bros.

People don’t get that MS isn’t replacing the Xbox One S, or trying to get everyone to upgrade. The X is just a premium option for the small group of people that care about higher end visuals.

We don’t say Toyota is crazy for making Lexus just because their Corolla’s are enough for the average consumer.

I didn’t expect to love Horizon as much as I do. It’s one of the few games this gen that actually surpasses the hype.

That has to be a long, long hallway, if it connect offices in different cities. :D
